Far Across The Dales

Time runs and flows
Across misty mountains
All covered with snow
While the heart rests in silence

Dreamy-eyed child asks for a lullaby
Painting all those valleys and rivers
All the mountain tops so high
Echoing still among silver days of forever

Pale fingers touch a scar
While resting upon your chest
Dew-like rhymes caress the heart
While tired mind tries to rest
I sing in a dream of blooming trees
Sending my oath and warmth with the wind

Far away across the rivers and seas
My path lies across the mountains and hills
To find once again my heart
I’ve left there apart

Time sings of the cascading dreams
They fall down where none sees
Far beyond quivering waves
Of old memories and days

I can see hard questions in your eyes
Hush, it’s time to rest now, dear
There are gonna be better times
For answers and hopes, hold a tear

Sleep well, love
Caress your dreams
Keep within a hope
We both haven’t yet lost
Unlock my heart, here’s the key
It’s yours now to keep
Don’t lose it wandering around the world
